Are you ready for a weekend of relaxation, complete with a deep red wine in your glass, a good meal, and a relaxing fireplace? Do you enjoy savoring wine that has a fruity flavor with the woodsy taint of nuts?

Ohio’s Kinkead Ridge 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon might be just the wine for your taste and is available at an affordable price in our dining room, as well as in our gift shop. Enjoy it with any of our beef, lamb, or wild game entrees our seasonal menus offer, then take home a bottle to enjoy during your evenings at home.

It’s with great pleasure that HideAway Country Inn carries such distinct Ohio wines and we are thrilled that the Kinkead Ridge 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon has won the Silver Medal and 89 points (highly recommended) at the Bordeaux World Wine Competition run by the Beverage Tasting Institute in Chicago, as well!!

We have heard via the Kinkead Ridge’s release that tasting notes included: "Garnet violet color. Pleasant aromas and flavors of floral black raspberry preserves, chocolate nuts, and peppery spice with a dry-yet-fruity medium body and a tangy, green apple and mineral accented finish. A very nice sipper with fine structure for the table too."

All the other 89 point wines appear to be from California and HideAway Inn, located near Bucyrus, Marion, and Mansfield, is excited to carry an exclusive Ohio wine with such distinction. All results will be posted on tastings.com on March 3, 2014.

The 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon was hand-harvested and contains classic aromas of cassis, plum and cherry and was aged in French and American oak. Classic hand winemaking techniques were used in the aging of this wine, giving it an earthy and personal feel. This wine is currently available to drink now and is recommended to be enjoyed now or within a few years of cellar storage.
